California Law for Security Officers
Building on the Legal Concepts course, this program is tailored to those officers working in the Golden State. General topics such as misdemeanors versus felonies are covered, however the real values in this program are the extracts from the California Penal Code. Laws of particular interest to the working security officer are covered. The premise is simple: if the officer's job is crime prevention, then he or she should know what a crime is in their specific state. Subjects include, but are not limited to: use of force, handling shoplifters, criminal damage, burglary and trespassing. And as with all courses in the Professional Development Series, automated quizzes and a final exam document the completion of this important training. Completion of Legal Concepts is recommended as a prerequisite to California Law for Today's Security Officer.

Each student will receive a Record of Training at the end of these programs. The student may then purchase an IFPO Certificate of Completion for $10.00 upon request.
